Nice set up Kadaan I like your layout, but if your only using the 24 do the windows feel small to you?
Daggerspine Alliance: Phoebus(Tank), Soozanuna(Heals/Tailor), Angakak (Enchanter), Wakantanaka(Herb/Alch), Znakharka, Jonhyone(JC), Marious(Other Tank/BS), Magnux(Enchanter), Coyolxhauqui(LW)
Switching from raiding on my main full screen on the 24 to running 5 windows on the 24 does make them feel a little small, but it's not too bad. I tried to keep the UI as uncluttered as possible which makes it feel a little better. I used to have more things displayed on-screen, but it started to make me feel claustrophobic. Tempted to drag the chat windows off-screen on the slaves, since I have whisper-forwarding through Jamba.
I am of a mind to add a 24" to my set up currently also running a single 24, but unlike you I have my main spread all across and my team on the 4 corners just on top of my main. It works out ok.... Not sure if I will like the spare 24 or not but will have to see.
Daggerspine Alliance: Phoebus(Tank), Soozanuna(Heals/Tailor), Angakak (Enchanter), Wakantanaka(Herb/Alch), Znakharka, Jonhyone(JC), Marious(Other Tank/BS), Magnux(Enchanter), Coyolxhauqui(LW)

part 2 of the list....
Navigation:
Inflight - Flight time to locations displayed in castbar.
Ping Direction - Will show a large red arrow on your screen showing you where and who is pinging the minimap.
Chinchilla - Square, scalable, movable minimap.
Mapster - A map replacement that shows the full content of zones (including unexplored areas). Also allows scaling and alpha settings. Integrates perfectly with the following mods:
- Tomtom - Using "/way zone x,y" you can create a waypoint on your map in any zone (adds an arrow with distance remaining on your screen directing you towards the coordinate). Also allows Ctrl-Rclick to addwaypoints directly to the map.
- HandyNotes - Create customized notes on the world map.
- Gathermate - Will overlay the map with known node information (mostly-complete database included) on various gathering professions (by default will only show locations for gathering professions you have).
- Routes - Allows you to define a route based on herb/ore/etc information for a zone that overlays on the minimap for quick and easy gathering. Integrates with TomTom for easy navigation.
Instances:
BigBrother - Fubar plugin that allows you to quickly query the consumable status of everyone in your party/raid.
DeadlyBossMods - Provides boss-related timers and notifications for 5-man instances.
Omen - Displays party/raid member's threat for your currently selected target (will also parse KTM data that it receives).
Recount - Damage meter mod that tracks more information then you can imagine (capable of creating graphs and side-by-side comparisons).
XLoot - A loot window replacement to the default blizzard frame with more options.
The following raid tools are installed:
- DeadlyBossMods - A boss mod that includes boss-related timers, notifications and a proximity window for certain events (i.e. Gruul's Shatter).
- oRa2 - A lightweight replacement to CTRaid (responds to all CT commands/requests).
Questing:
tomQuest2 - Lightweight quest log replacement with quick view of watched quests/achievements and their objectives.
Questhelper - Uses a pre-populated quest database to calculate the fastest way to complete your current quests. Integrates with TomTom for automatic waypoint creation.
Lightheaded - Adds comments for each quest from Wowhead so they're viewable in-game (database downloaded and installed - does not query Wowhead each time).
most of these mods that you don't use you can disable, but overall it is a good package, that i have been using for a good 12 months.
the only issue with this is that the author no longer supports 1.25 ratio, for my 4 slaves, so I'm looking into a custom mix of this SpartanUI (replacing the unitframes and ArkiveUI core with SpartanUI core and Bartender 4)

i run the slaves on a 2nd monitor / pc. Same UI though:
edit:
anyone have a good suggestion for an auto-screenshot addon for achievement spam? as you can see the one I'm running likes to fire before the graphic actually fades in.
jeebus, why have so many addons? i only wrote and run two addons
